«The tanks and sinks from “our grandparents’ time” are presented as “boxes” of solid stone, hand carved and with a dark colouring aged over time (patina). The challenge we set ourselves was to build a stone tank or sink (pool) with identical characteristics. Therefore, the process started right in the quarry, where the choice of the block itself was essential: the 10 blocks of stone that originated this masterpiece were extracted with diamond wire and opened manually by the deposition extracts (loro), giving the faces of the stone block a natural and already aged finish (deposition of organic ancestral materials).» Ana Alves
